I originally fell in love with the movement of the bushes in the strong gusts of wind. Looks like a dragon to me.

I tried to process this image per comments I got and I am not sure if it is better. I am too close to the image now and cannot see it clearly anymore.

Kind of funny that I took this on the 21st day of November and it is being submitted for the 21st of February.

This is a good abstract, and the standout part for me is the yellow/green movement in front with the darker non-moving green in back. Without the background this would just not work out so well, IMO.

I like the tighter crop as it gives more focus to the abstract and doesn't allow the eye to wander to the evident leaves.

I can see the dragon and I like the color combination of green and yellow. Not sure about all the blur.

Your crop definitely emphasizes the dragon features. Interesting colors and textures.

The increased contrast helps the motion stand out. In the crop, I think that I would have left a little more of the image at the bottom to sort of anchor the scene. I see what you are seeing in this shot. It's a good "blur" image.
